I didn\'t get it when I was in college, I dont get it now.. I am a creative person, but I fail to see anything of value in this poem... And I also think you are reaching when you interpret this poem as snow falling randomly, that is your opinion, and subjective.I think the guy was mad...

The form of the poem is connected to the pattern of lines in each stanza. Look, the words look as if they are falling from the sky, like snow. The words are also randomly arranged, just like snow which does not have a fixed path that is organised. It is unpredictable as in where the snow will fall. Also, the words are arranged in this form so as to convey the message that the size of the snowflake does not have a fixed shape, or \"no standard\". Besides, the amount of words decreases, suddenly increases and decreases again- this shows the amount of snowfall. It symbolises the change in season too.

The poem\'s form itself looks like a snow.Thus i think E.E.Cumming is trying to mean that snow falls from the sky in tht way he wrote the poem.

It is about snow and how confusing and unpredictable it is when it moves and falls from the sky. You could also say that the structure of the poem reflects the pattern of a falling snowflake.

I agree with the second post: also the poem presents a sense of wonder at all the little pieces that come together to make snow. like how when somebody says snow i imagine little snowflakes falling from the sky, i dont just imagine one solid thing i imagine the little pieces.

i think the poem is about nothing, maybe. like literally: nothing. but that's just my opinion. i could be devastatingly wrong and just don't understand what he's trying to say
